Early diagnosis of colorectal cancer via plasma proteomic analysis of CRC and advanced adenomatous polyp.

ABSTRACT: Aim:This paper aimed to identify new candidate biomarkers in blood for early diagnosis of CRC. Background:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most widespread malignancies increasing globally. The high mortality rate associated with colorectal cancer is due to the delayed diagnosis in an advanced stage while the metastasis has occurred. For better clinical management and subsequently to reduce mortality of CRC, early detection biomarkers are in high demand. Methods:A 2D-PAGE separation of proteins was performed followed by tandem mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-TOF) to discover potential plasma protein markers for CRC and AA (advanced adenomas). Furthermore, western blot method was used to confirm a part of the results in colorectal tissue samples. Results:The significantly altered proteins including HPR, HP, ALB, KRT1, APOA1, FGB, IGJ and C4A were down-regulated in polyp relative to normal, and CRC compare to polyp surprisingly, and inversely, ORM2 was up-regulated with the fold change ? 2 and p-value ? 0.05. We also surveyed APOA1, FGB, and C4A for further confirmation of their expression changes by western blotting. All three of them showed a decreasing trend from normal toward CRC tissue samples as it mentioned before, but just changes of FGB and C4A were significant. Conclusion:The results demonstrated that plasma proteins can be less invasive markers for the detection of CRC. FGB and C4A can be considered as plasma potential biomarkers to early diagnosis of CRC patients and understanding the underlying procedures in tumorigenesis. Undoubtedly, the additional study must be conducted on large scale cohorts to verify the results.

Project description:BackgroundInduction chemotherapy (IC) can alleviate locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LA-NPC), but effectiveness differs between patients, toxicity is problematic, and effective blood-based IC efficacy predictors are lacking. Here, we aimed to identify biomarkers for early identification of IC beneficiaries.MethodsSixty-four pairs of matched plasma samples collected before and after IC from LA-NPC patients including 34 responders and 30 non-responders, as well as 50 plasma samples of healthy individuals, were tested using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry. The proteins associated with clinical traits or IC benefits were investigated by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and soft cluster analysis. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes functional annotations were performed to determine the potential function of the identified proteins. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the performance of candidate biomarkers in predicting IC beneficiaries.ResultsCompared with healthy individuals, 1027 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were found in the plasma of LA-NPC patients. Based on feedback from IC outcomes, 463 DEPs were identified in the pre-IC plasma between responders and non-responders. A total of 1212 DEPs represented the proteomic changes before and after IC in responders, while 276 DEPs were identified in post-IC plasma between responders and non-responders. WGCNA identified nine protein co-expression modules correlated with clinical traits. Soft cluster analysis identified four IC benefits-related protein clusters. Functional enrichment analysis showed that these proteins may play a role in IC via immunity, complement, coagulation, glycosaminoglycan and serine. Four proteins differentially expressed in all group comparisons, paraoxonase/arylesterase 1 (PON1), insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), rheumatoid factor D5 light chain (v-kappa-3) and RNA helicase (DDX55), were associated with clinical traits or IC benefits. A four-protein model accurately identified potential IC beneficiaries (AUC=0.95) while diagnosing LA-NPC (AUC=0.92), and the prediction performance was verified using the models to confirm the effective IC (AUC=0.97) and evaluate IC outcome (AUC=0.94).ConclusionThe plasma protein profiles among IC responders and non-responders were different. PON1, IGFBP3, v-kappa-3 and DDX55 could serve as potential biomarkers for early identification of IC beneficiaries for individualised treatment of LA-NPC.
